beaglesd Posted June 10, 2014 Report Posted June 10, 2014 9/12-9/14/14prefer white house zone, then capitol/convention zone trying to get close to malljw marriott target - only 4* in white house, then marriott metro or other 4* in capitol/convention zonewould like to pay less than $130 too early to bid? strategy? thanks!
AaronJB Posted June 10, 2014 Report Posted June 10, 2014 The JW Marriott is the only 4* that has been reported to the board in that zone. There is always the chance that other hotels can be reported to the board at that star level, ratings can change, zone boundaries can change and other factors. Both discount services - especially Price.line are best for getting *a* hotel at a discount rather than a specific hotel. If you do get a specific hotel, that's great - but there are no guarantees. Are you willing to accept ANY hotel at the 4* level in either of these zones? Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
beaglesd Posted June 10, 2014 Author Report Posted June 10, 2014 yes willing to take a chance for a deal
thereuare Posted June 10, 2014 Report Posted June 10, 2014 prefer white house zone, then capitol/convention zone trying to get close to mallTo confirm... did you first want to bid only for the White House zone, then if rejected start over with the Convention Center zone... OR is the goal the least expensive 4* hotel in either of these zones? Please confirm and we will suggest a strategy for you to follow.

beaglesd Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Posted June 11, 2014 hotwire was 4* (probably) liason affinia capitol hill for $122.which would be ok but not optimal location.so i'll use that as the top end and start a bit lower.
